A Hungry Dragon
The "A Hungry Dragon" event in Stellaris — flavor, choices, and how to trigger it with the event console command.
A Hungry Dragon

Our … observing the Sky Dragon have reported loud creaking noises seemingly coming from its internal organs. It has also been circling around … unusually often over the last few months, sometimes swooping right past the upper reaches of the atmosphere before pulling away again. Our working hypothesis is that the creature is hungry and wishes to land to feed, as it has periodically done in the past. It is not clear why it hesitates - perhaps it wishes to see how we react, now that we have joined it among the stars.
